Chao did his Masters from 2013-2016 in the group of Prof. Xia Li at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGDB) before he started as a PhD student in October 2016 in our lab. He graduated in September 2020 and stayed as a PostDoc in the lab since then. His projects focus on the identification of proteins that control the initial steps of rhizobial entry into host cells and the stabilization of infection structures.
